Bankside

Bankside: Lombardy

Bankside has a wonderful view, overlooking the confluence of two of the canals of Navigli. It’s right in the middle of the area – one of Milan’s liveliest – and works well as a base from which to explore. The interior is never going to win awards for its design, but it’s kept very well, and honestly, you’ll be spending most of your time sipping a spritz on the canal anyway.


Home truths:
*There is a single sofa bed for a third guest, but as this is a studio we wouldn't recommend more than two people at a time *While there is a lift to the fourth floor, you'll have to climb a flight of stairs to get to it *There is nowhere soft to sit apart from the bed *This home is in a central spot, so noise is to be expected
